Explore this rich-media digital story about vertical living created by The National Film Board of Canada and The New York Times. The interactive collection includes videos, graphics, games, and articles that allow users to understand the nature, history, and impact of such structures on their occupants.From the site:HIGHRISE explores vertical living in the global suburbs. It’s multi-year, many-media collaborative documentary experiment at the National Film Board of Canada, directed by Katerina Cizek, and produced by Gerry Flahive. Since its launch in 2009, HIGHRISE has generated many projects, including mixed media, interactive documentaries, mobile productions, live presentations, installations and films. Collectively, the projects — and the ones to come — have both shaped and realized the HIGHRISE vision: to see how the documentary process can drive and participate in social innovation rather than just to document it; and to help re-invent what it means to be an urban species in the 21st century.

This site is a somewhat complex, by this I mean that there are many links to different aspects of bridges and bridge design. The site does offer much information about the history and design and design techniques. The website offers many links to different sections to the site. There are different links for the variety of users and their comprehension and understanding of the material. The links vary in levels, by this I mean there is one titled basic notes about bridges, to other notes about bridges to detailed notes about bridges. This gives the user the choice to look up what they want without having the feeling of being overwhelmed by the information presented to the user. Within this first set of links there is another set that is more specified, for example Types of bridges and how they workBuilding bridgesParts for bridgesMaterials for bridgesBasic rulesForces and what they doStresses and strainsAnd within this set of links there is yet another set of links and a basic tutorial about the topic at hand. These links are more of pictures and examples to help the user better understand the material. I think that this site is of great use to those thinking of a career in Civil Engineering.Links to different aspects of bridges, bridge design bridge history and design techniques.

Streets ought to be designed for everyone – whether young or old, on foot or on bicycle, in a car or in a bus – but too often they are designed only for speeding cars or creeping traffic jams. This presentation tells all about what 'complete streets" are, and why thet are so important in urban planning.

This video was recorded at ARCHES and SPENS Final Seminar – Ljubljana. The seminar was organized by the Slovenian National Building and Civil Engineering Institute, within the EC 6th Framework Programme project CERTAIN that is coordinating a cluster of projects dedicated to road infrastructure research in the NMS and other Central and Eastern European Countries. The main purpose of the event was to present to the international audience the final results of two other EU-projects from this cluster: SPENS (Sustainable Pavements for European New Member States), which research was aiming at finding new construction materials for road pavement engineering and their environmental impacts, and ARCHES (Assessment and Rehabilitation of Central European Highway Structures), which was focusing on more efficient assessment and rehabilitation of bridges. The two three-year projects ended at the end of August 2009. The seminar highlighted several practical examples of road engineering, such as: developments and applications of new materials and technologies in the construction and rehabilitation of road infrastructure, pavements and highway structures environmental issues in road engineering, optimised assessment of highway structures as a precondition for an optimal use of the available financial resources measurements of real traffic loadings and various applications of the data, procedures and tools for finding relevant information about the latest developments in the field.
